1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Epithelioid vascular neoplasms of the bone are classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) into only two tiers: low-grade epithelioid hemangioma (EH) and a more malignant category including both epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and epithelioid angiosarcoma. The World Health Organization defines bone EH as a locally aggressive neoplasm with no connotation of benign or intermediate malignancy. We reviewed three cases of EH in our lab archives with the perspective of appraising their histomorphological approach toward diagnosis. Patients were in the age range of 15-25 years. The site of the neoplasms ranged from the carpal bones to the metatarsal bones. Histomorphological examination of the lesions showed a nodular growth pattern of a vascular neoplasm without demonstrable vessel origin. The vasoformative area increased from the center to the periphery, with prominent epithelioid morphology of the endothelial cells at the periphery and an associated inflammatory infiltrate comprising eosinophils, lymphocytes, and plasma cells. The growth pattern was diffuse, with extension into the deeper dermis of overlying skin.
